Worth Passing Along

A few links I enjoyed reading this week:

The Beauty of Living... Slowly (Simple Mom)- some great ideas of ways to ditch the busyness of life and have a fun, spontaneous day of fun with your family.

Your Expectations of You: Something's Got to Give (Life As Mom)- great encouragement and reminder that we as moms don't have to do it all & that "to everything, there is a season". Some of the things I did when I only had one child just aren't as easy to do (or necessary) now that I have three kids. There are lots of "good things" we can be doing, but we don't need to burden ourselves with trying to do them all.

No comments:

I'm a Christian stay at home mom to my three boys & a baby girl, trying to balance family life, homeschooling, and all the little things that go along with caring for my family and my home, while serving the Lord.

The Family Manager's Creed

I don't want to be a tightwad or a spendthrift. I want to be smart.I want to celebrate life, to surround myself with beauty, and to be content in whatever state I am in.I want to manage my finances, to organize my routine, and to use my possessions wisely.I want to budget resources and time, to help others, and to bring glory to God.--- by Cynthia Yates
